We discuss the canonical structure of the collective formulation of Vector Model/Higher Spin Duality in AdS$_4$. This involves a construction of bulk AdS Higher Spin fields through a time-like bi-local Map, with a Hamiltonian and canonical structure which are established to all orders in $1/N$.
Employing the world line spinning particle picture we discuss the appearance of several different `gauges' which we use to gain a deeper explanation of the Collective/Gravity identification. We discuss transformations and algebraic equivalences between them. For a bulk identification we develop a `gauge independent' representation where all gauge constraints are eliminated. This `gauge reduction' of Higher Spin Gravity demonstrates that the physical content of 4D AdS HS theory is represented by the dynamics of an unconstrained scalar field in 6d. It is in this gauge reduced form that HS Theory can be seen to be equivalent to a 3+3 dimensional bi-local collective representation of CFT3.
We consider the question of loop corrections (i.e. 1/N) in the vector model/higher spin duality following the recent work of Giombi and Klebanov. The purpose of this paper is to gain further more precise comparison between the two sides of the duality. For CFTs given by 3d O(N) or U(N) vector models we evaluate the leading and one loop partition functions in a variety of geometries. Our calculations are performed in the scheme of collective field theory which was seen in earlier studies to represent a bulk description of Vasiliev higher spin theory. The calculations presented provide data for comparison of small fluctuation determinants giving further evidence for the one-to-one bulk identification between the bi-local and the AdS picture. They also offer insight into the identification of coupling constants G and 1/N of the two descriptions for models based on O(N) symmetry.
For W_N minimal model CFT's at Large N, we formulate a nonlinear field theory of primary operators. A classification of single-trace operators is given first based on which an interacting field theory operating in Fock space is built. A hamiltonian is constructed with the property that it reproduces exactly the spectrum of conformal dimensions of all the primaries. This field theory is characterized by cubic (and quartic) interactions with G=1/N as an interaction parameter. It is seen that the 1/N nonlinear representation contains the interactions and structure known from Matrix-vector models.
